If you play your role, do the team thing, the coaches like you and as a result award you votes. Its not rocket science.
People keep talking up a big conspiracy theory over the whole thing...forget that....look at who does their role.
Of the top 10, i'd argue that only Cripps (and to a lesser extent Saad) could use a bit of work on improving the 'team' part of their game. All of the other blokes do the little things and play to instruction. Ask yourself how many players 'block' for their teammates. Come up with a list.....i reckon you'd just about come up with our top 10 this year.
Regardless of punters criticising our B&F results and bemoaning the recognition of blokes like Ed Curnow and Plowman, the fact is that coaches like players who are selfless and do the team thing.
Ed Curnow and Lachie Plowman will continue to attract coaches' votes for as long as they pull on the boots.
